Video Shows Jellyfish-Shaped Object Hovering Near Alaska Air Force Base
A video recorded in June over Anchorage, Alaska, shows a jellyfish-shaped object with tentacle-like extensions hovering near Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. Captured by Sara Jane Osborn while photographing a rainbow, the object appeared suddenly, hovered briefly, and then vanished. Social media users have debated its nature, suggesting it could be a UFO, kite, or drone. The exact location and any military connection remain unverified, and the video's authenticity has not been independently confirmed.
